    Very favorable...not a complete stretch to make the finals. But we also could lose to DePaul.

    I'm hoping that we just get really hot for these next few weeks and turn from a 30% three point shooting team to like a 40% three point shooting team. That would be nice. Here's to streaking guys, let's do this.

    We need be above 70% from the charity stripe, too. Low 60s won't get it done.

    Golf is a relatively simple game, played by reasonably intelligent people, stupidly.

    St. John's GTown game was, as referred to by one of my cohorts- a very good BAD game. GTown was incredible in their bad foul shooting, both teams shit bricks from 3 and both made boneheaded plays. Somehow GTown couldn't finish bunnies at the end.

    It will sure add to the lunchtime game crowd at the Garden though.
